A friend has a Dell laptop that is a few years old so I assumed that
it had a 1.0 USB integrated in the system.

She tried to plug her Ipod into the laptop but was told that she was
plugging a high speed unit into a low speed unit.

She bought a PCMCIA 2.0 USB card and installed it into the slot but
still gets the same reply when running the Ipod. In the device manager
it shows this card along with usb root and other usb periphs so where
is she going wrong.

I tried to help but didn't get too far ...

TIA for any help.
 
My Dell, also a few years old Dimension 2300, has USB 2.0, but must have
special dell driver software installed before it operates in the 2.0 mode.
Dell has driver software available on their site if your friend doesn't have
the driver cd, but maybe someone here could give you advice if you mention
which Dell.
